one more question. are the computing nodes able to recover from a crash and pickup where it left off? it would suck to restart hashcat if a single node failed. as more and more machines are added to the cluster, it also increase the chances of failure.

Perhaps I'm comparing apples with oranges, but using 'oclHashcat-plus64.bin -m 2500', I've experienced a reduction in speeds between v.0.08 and v.0.09. I'm using the same hccap file and am running a straight dictionary attack with no special options. I'm using two HD 7970's and the speeds have dropped from ~290K to ~200K.
